I have xp I try to download flash player but it fails about at 50%. Pi-- me off!
Hi,
Unless you have Windows XP Service Pack 3, the online installer won't work due Windows XP Service Pack 2 and below not supporting the latest signing technologies (more information here and here), as such, instead of troubleshooting the download issue, please try the offline installer posted at the bottom of the Installation problems | Flash Player | Windows 7 and earlier page, in the 'Still having problems' section. There are 3 different installers for the various supported browsers.

I use XP, SP3 with Firefox. I got Flash Player to install by disabling Avast anti-virus program. Here is the installation log:
